Breaking down the scene(Part 2)

Costume
(Very cool type costume on Frankie that makes him look
strong and powerful ) 
Costume in this scene is pretty  ordinary, this is because the director is wanting you to believe that these Vampers still live like normal humans do. Edward in the scene is wearing a work suit but Frankie  on the other hand is not like that he is in jacket and more causal look to give that fell of im stronger then you and i go beter things then you do.
Edward wears the suite because he works in a office all the time, the white may also represent a sense of goodness on the Character because of him not drinking human blood.


                            
Make up
(Costume makes him  look
 like he has just come back from work or is going)
The Make up on this Actors is basic, they don't seam to have gone over the top with is like in Twilight, they have kept it basic to do what i have said all ready and that is to try and make them seam like they are still human. But when you look in there eyes you are reminded that they are still Vampers and it's just they live like humans. They also have the Vampier like fangs, but there small because the director want's you to fell like they still live like humans, Remember even the smallest things can help add to the fell of a scene.

Breaking down the scene(Part 1)

Camera Angles
(Camera is kind of below shoulder)
In the scene i have chosen the Camera angles are very clever. The Majority of the scene the camera is place below the actors and is looking up to them. This then gives a sense of power to both the characters and makes them like there bigger and better then us people watching the film.





(Lighting is coming from cooktop
lights and the light above
the middle table and light
at end of kickten)



Lighting
In the scene all of the lighting is coming from the light's on the set, there does not seam to be any trace of off stage lighting. I think they choose to do this to remind you that they are Vampiras and that the tend to live in darkness. The Lighting is also well used in a way to represent danger and fear of the Characters. If it was to light you would not believe that they are Real Vampires and what they do is all fake.

What is the Clip About?

In the clip of Daybreakers that i provided before we have the main character of the film Edward(played by Ethan Hawk) and his brother Frankie(played by Michael dorman). Both these Characters are Vampira's in the film. During this conversation Frankie discovers that the compony his brother is working for is creating a substitute fake blood due to the earth's human race slowly becoming extinct. But Frankie does not like this idea he thinks it's stupid because it's not real blood but Edward on the other hand likes it because Edward does not drink human blood, he fells sorry for the humans, but not just that he does not want to be a Vampire, his sick of staying the some age over and over again . His brother loves it because it means he can leave for ever.

Introduction to Vampirism(Part 2)

Death of a Vampira

When a Vampira dies it's not like how a normal human would pass away. There skin lose all there fluid and contract, this then exposes the roots of there hair, nails and teeth.




Legends of  the Vampira

Some people in the past have hypothesize that the legend if the Vampira where influenced by people being buried alive because of the short medical knowledge in the that era of time.
There where manny cases of people reporting sounds from certain coffins. They where latter dug up to find fingernail marks on the lid of the coffin due to the victim trying to escape.

Introduction to Vampirism


Vampirism is all over the TV and films these days and generally follows the some representations of many past movies and TV shows.  The belief of Vampires has been around for many centuries. From the darn of the myth Vampire’s where known as mythological or folkloric beings. These beings are known for there sucking of blood on other living creatures. It would not mater if the creature was alive or deceased, they will go and take blood anyway. But the term Vampire did not exist all those years ago.
